Education
There are virtually no schools in the Sham Tseng area and so most students (primary and secondary) are sent to schools in Tsuen Wan.
There are three schools in Sham Tseng:
- Emmanuel Primary School
- Sham Tseng Catholic Primary School - formerly Chai Wan Kok Catholic Primary School is relocated from Tsuen Wan for 2009-2010 school year
- Parkview-Rhine Garden Pre-school

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“A woman might claim to retain some of the child’s faculties, although very limited and defused, simply because she has not been encouraged to learn methods of thought and develop a disciplined mind. As long as education remains largely induction ignorance will retain these advantages over learning and it is time that women impudently put them to work.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
“The study of tools as well as of books should have a place in the public schools. Tools, machinery, and the implements of the farm should be made familiar to every boy, and suitable industrial education should be furnished for every girl.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.”
—Jean Piaget (1896–1980)
